Diaper Cakes

These are some diaper cakes I did as baby shower decorations/gifts for some friends. The 3 with animal blankies on top are 3-tiered, while the other is a smaller 2-tier version (I was short on time and 9 months pregnant, so not as much time or energy to devote to that one!).

DIsney Princess Cake

Kaylee wanted a Disney Princess party for her 3rd birthday; here's the cake I made for that. I bought the castle and princesses cake topper set online and used one of the example photos shown with the set as a basis for the top of the cake.

Scrapbook Paper Name

I cut these letters out of cardboard, then glued scrapbook paper on top. Then I painted the back of the cardboard with a chocolate brown acrylic paint and brushed a little of the paint over the edges/onto the paper to give it a more rustic look. These were decorations for a baby shower for my sister-in-law.

Andy's Painted Name

Last night I finished painting the letters to hang above the crib in Andy's room; I did them to match his zoo bedding set.



A friend actually made this for his room, but I thought it was a cute idea to keep in mind as a project for later! :) It's a wooden frame with scrapbook paper and ready-made animals glued on top. She painted the inner and outer edges of the frame brown.

Bow Holder

Kaylee's becoming quite the accessory queen...she has so many bows (and counting, as I've been making some for her lately). I saw various bow holders around and when I ordered a custom one that came in very shoddily made, I decided if you want something done right sometimes you have to do it yourself. So I made one for her and it turned out pretty cute, if I do say so myself! I finished it last night and hung it this morning; good thing I put two ribbons on it, as one would have been completely filled already!!
